Even though Simon Peter didn’t know Jesus, he listened to the Lord and pushed the boat off, into the water. But he’s probably asking himself, Who is this man? He must be someone important because everyone wants to hear Him.

Dear soul, in waiting on God you may often be ready to be weary, because you hardly know what you have to expect. I pray you, be of good courage – this ignorance is often one of the best signs. He is teaching you to leave all in His hands, and to wait on Him alone.

If I were to tell stories of my former existence, people who know me now would have a hard time believing that's who I once was. When Jesus changes a person, He makes them "a new creation, old things having passed away, all things having become new."

God changed my heart until I wanted what He wanted more than anything else in the world. His plan was for me to go in a new, different and exciting direction. In that process I discovered something wonderful: God’s call on your life can change.

When our spiritual eyes are opened to this incredible truth, we will automatically see from a very different perspective. We will begin to realize that we are no longer looking from the bottom up; but instead, we are looking from the top down.
